Snownews development journalSnownews development and announcement journalSince when did I release 1.5.4-beta2- (Found July 2, 2008 ) 2004-09-23, 16:07 GMT That was my first though upon finding an ebuild that was sneaked into Gentoo of above version. Either one of the translators leaked this version or some people keep reloading the downloadbeta directory on my server. ;) Either way, this version is really to be considered beta. There was a reason for me not to announce it, ya know ;) Anyway, I'm waiting for the translations. These really need to be brought up to date. I will also accept offers for translations of the web...http://kiza.kcore.de/software/snownews/changes#139 RSS news- (Found July 2, 2008 ) 2004-09-18, 21:05 GMT Admittedly there haven't been much changes to snownews recently since I was busy with something else. But this is RSS related so I cross post it here as it may be of interest. Some minor changes, mostly cleanup I made the progress bars perfectly smooth. And much faster. The code wasted a lot of CPU cycles. The cookie loading still does the same, though. :P The highlight bar and the status line cover the whole screen instead of n-1 columns now. If an error during an...http://kiza.kcore.de/software/snownews/changes#138 Highly insignificant update- (Found July 2, 2008 ) 2004-10-31, 23:38 GMT The 1.5.5.1 package had wrong compiler flags. -g was switched on while -O2 optimizations were off. Not a big deal, but I replaced the package with a new one. The next version's configure knows Cygwin and the Makefile knows DESTDIR. Thanks to Yaakov Selkowitz for this and for the Cygwin ports. :)http://kiza.kcore.de/software/snownews/changes#149 Take some chilli with your chicken- (Found July 2, 2008 ) 2004-11-12, 10:34 GMT I couldn't have explained it better so I just link to Lars' posting in the Liferea forum about an IMO minor security issue that might also affect your snownews installation. If you are using Snownews from day 0, please run "chmod -R go= .snownews" onto your config directory. As of version 1.4.something Snownews sets umask to 0077 for all newly created files. Older files retain their umask if it is different. There was a crashbug discovered in the NetBSD port, see bug...http://kiza.kcore.de/software/snownews/changes#150 Version 1.5.8 released- (Found July 2, 2008 ) 2008-01-09, 08:15 GMT 1.5.8 has made it… somehow. Well actually this is just a small change which adds two new translations and build fixes as well as moving the manpages to share hierachy. In other words, I have lost track of the changes. ;) I'm currently going through the Debian bugtracker and integrate most of what's pilled up there.http://kiza.kcore.de/software/snownews/changes#161 Version 1.5.7 (Woger the lost vewsion) weleased- (Found July 2, 2008 ) 2005-06-05, 10:21 GMT Bwethwen and weadews of this weblog.

If you want to talk, demand, flame me or other Snownews users, join the list. ;) This also acts as the main support address from now on. If you want to assist other users who have problems, you're welcome, too. Instructions are at http:kiza.kcore.desoftwaresnownewssupport.enhttp://kiza.kcore.de/software/snownews/changes#159 I <3 zer0s- (Found July 2, 2008 ) 2005-02-21, 22:29 GMT Yes, this project is still alive if you haven't noticed. Just moving with Warp 0.002 at the moment. ;) It seems that some, OK one, platform does not like the code numobjperfeed = (COLS-titlestrlen-2)(double) numfeeds; if numfeeds is zero. Burns and dies with a SIGFPE and claims a divide by zero, figure that! Anyway, patch to the rescue. http:kiza.kcore.desoftwaresnownewsdownloadpatchesdiv-zero.diff This only happens if you have a completely empty feed list and was...http://kiza.kcore.de/software/snownews/changes#158 Last post of the year- (Found July 2, 2008 ) 2004-12-24, 11:47 GMT The year we call 2004 is nearing its end and Snownews will see its third year of existence in a couple of days. Much has changed during this time, hopefully always to the better. Well, at least comparing to version 1.0 there was some improvement I would say. ;) If you're still looking for somebody to do a favour... it's christmas time in case you haven't noticed the madness all christianwestern countries on this planet have fallen into, you can donate something (with that.http://kiza.kcore.de/software/snownews/changes#157 Version 1.5.6.1 (it's-all-the-beta-testers-fault) released- (Found July 2, 2008 ) 2004-12-09, 12:09 GMT I received three complaints about crashes with typepad.com feeds which happened because of an empty <dc:date> tag. Looks like strptime() does not enjoy NULL pointers... as always. So try again with 1.5.6.1.http://kiza.kcore.de/software/snownews/changes#156 |
